Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 3317, other record living area = 3090.
High Price Point: The list price of nearly $6 million places this property in a very exclusive market segment, potentially limiting the pool of prospective buyers.
Specific Design Aesthetic: The extensive use of bamboo flooring and custom bamboo cabinetry, while high-end, represents a distinct design choice that may not appeal to all buyers, potentially narrowing market interest.
Absence of Mentioned Cooling System: Despite being a modern home built in 2014 with numerous high-end features, the description does not mention a cooling system (e.g., central air conditioning), which could be a perceived drawback for some buyers in California's climate.
